most reel problems with electrocoin tend to be connectors on the reel plugs,there probably is a loose pin on the plug

Those pins in the plugs are a problem

although found that more in the older flat tops rather than casino versions. It could also possibly be a dirty or failing reel sensor.

So what causes the problem when reel is out a line

Reel sensor, or slipped reel bands (Unusual since they are all glued on well these days).

Apart from reel sensor or connection plugs,If the machine sets up ok and only during play the reel ends up out of line, Another possibility to look at is a faulty reel stepper motor,sticking or faulty motors set the reels out of line then activates reel alarm,sometimes this problem can happen after the machine has been running some time and when the motors get heated.
Without power to the machine turn the reels slowly by hand and check they turn free,no sticking points on the motor,you can also check this way for any problems with the reel drum and sensor tab getting caught anywhere.
